Chapter 509 A Delicious Feast
Unwilling to see his father humiliated, Li Song made an excuse and took his leave.
Li Kaiyin sat at the dining table, his chopsticks reaching for the dog excrement in the bowl several times, but he couldn't bring himself to eat it. That mad dog Wang Wenzhou had gone too far, actually letting someone feed him dog excrement.
"Hurry up, Lao Li! Everyone's waiting to see you eat shit! You don't know, I heard there's a huge commotion outside the palace gates right now. The students can't remember anything since the imperial edict hasn't been posted yet!" Wang Wenzhou said with a smile.
"Lord Li, you've been wronged. Please hurry!" Wu Daji didn't care whether Li Kaiyin was eating excrement or not; it wasn't him who was eating it anyway. They needed to hurry, and Wang Wenzhou had to publish the list as soon as possible.
"Lord Wang, could you please get me some seasonings?" Li Kaiyin asked with a wry smile.
"Pah!" Wang Wenzhou cursed, "You have the nerve to beg me? If you hadn't driven Li Mei to her death, I would have treated you like royalty!"
Li Kaiyin blushed with shame. He knew that Wang Wenzhou had made him eat excrement to avenge Li Mei. "It's also my fault," he thought. "If I had no shame and hadn't become the head of the clan, Mei wouldn't have died."
Thinking of this, Li Kaiyin picked up a piece of dog poop and ate it in big mouthfuls.
"Hey! Old Li, how long has it been since you've eaten? You can even eat dog poop with such relish?" Wang Wenzhou said sarcastically with a smile.
"Ugh..." Li Kaiyin was already trying to suppress his nausea, but after Wang Wenzhou said that, he couldn't hold it in any longer and vomited up everything in his stomach.
"That won't do!" Wang Wenzhou said hurriedly, "Old Wu, you have to talk to Old Li. He just ate and then threw it up. Is that what you call eating? If Old Li is so disrespectful, I won't give you any face either!"
Wu Daji shook his head with a wry smile and quickly said, "My lord, please bear with it a little longer!"
Li Kaiyin nodded helplessly, forcing herself to swallow back what she had vomited.
Wang Wenzhou felt much better immediately. "Sister-in-law, if you're watching from heaven, come and see! Your father's eating shit!" he cried. "Sister-in-law, you're so silly! How can you not understand? Although your parents gave you life and raised you, the joy you brought them as a child during that time is priceless. Parents have a responsibility to raise their children, but children have no responsibility to obey their parents completely!"
After a short while, Li Kaiyin finished his meal, wiped his mouth, and said, "Lord Wang, I've finished eating."
"You can get lost!" Wang Wenzhou cursed. "If Li Mei hadn't left a will telling me not to hurt you, I would have made you pay for it, no matter the cost!"
"Lord Wang, I take my leave!" Li Kaiyin cupped his hands in farewell and turned to leave. He was filled with regret. Seeing Wang Wenzhou's state today, he realized how deeply Wang Wenzhou loved Li Mei. Li Mei should have been happy with Wang Wenzhou, but he had driven her to her death. Mei'er, I'm so sorry!
All of Wang Wenzhou's requests have been fulfilled. Wu Daji cupped his hands in greeting and said, "Lord Wang, may we now revise the list?"
Wang Wenzhou thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "Okay, let's move the rankings up one place. The third-place scholar becomes the second-place scholar, and the second-place scholar becomes the top scholar."
Since Wang Wenzhou had agreed, Wu Daji took his leave.
Although Wang Wenzhou made Li Kaiyin suffer and vent her anger, there was still Li Zong to consider. According to Li Song, the person primarily responsible for Li Mei's death was still Li Zong.
As Wang Wenzhou drank in silence, he pondered how to deal with Li Zong. The key issue was Li Zong's highly sensitive identity—the King of Joseon. Unless the Ming Dynasty went to war with Joseon, it would be difficult for Wang Wenzhou to kill Li Zong.
Although Zhu Youjian secretly ordered Wang Wenzhou to cause trouble in Korea and cause Korea to rebel against the Ming Dynasty, Wang Wenzhou did not want to take the blame.
"This humble man, Wei Yongfu, greets Your Excellency!" At this moment, Wei Yongfu hurriedly came forward to pay his respects.
After receiving the order, Wei Yongfu led his men to Seoul without stopping, and finally arrived today.
"Alright!" Wang Wenzhou said with a smile, "Little Wei, come over here and have a drink with me."
"Yes!" Wei Yongfu quickly replied.
"Let the brothers rest for a few days. You will be on missions on the day of Li Zong's birthday banquet," Wang Wenzhou said.
"Please rest assured, sir. The brothers are overjoyed to hear that you want them to come to Seoul on a mission. I guarantee they will handle it perfectly," Wei Yongfu said with a smile.
Wang Wenzhou took a sip of wine from Wang Ying's mouth and laughed loudly, "You bunch of bastards, killing people has become your pleasure."
Wei Yongfu was quite helpless. His men were originally death row inmates. Later, when they went to Liaodong on a mission, Wang Wenzhou gave the survivors good opportunities, and they all became members of the Embroidered Uniform Guard. Their lives were worlds apart from before.
But the brothers were all depressed. They felt there was only one reason for this: they couldn't have fun killing people anymore. They didn't know that they were actually suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder.
Just then, King Injo discussed with his ministers the idea of celebrating his birthday early and getting rid of Wang Wenzhou, that mad dog, as soon as possible. If Wang Wenzhou remained in Joseon, who knew what trouble he might cause?
Wu Daji and the others all agreed with Li Zong's proposal.
……
The next morning, before Wang Wenzhou had even gotten out of bed, Jian Fengyu knocked on the door and announced, "Lord Wang, the King of Korea has sent a messenger to invite you to his birthday banquet at noon today."
Wang Wenzhou frowned and asked in confusion, "Isn't there still 5 days left? Why is it your birthday today?"
"I don't know!" Jian Fengyu quickly replied.
“Okay!” Wang Wenzhou said quickly, “Have Wei Yongfu come over immediately.”
"Yes!" Jian Fengyu accepted the order and left.
A short while later, Wei Yongfu arrived.
Wang Wenzhou began assigning tasks.
Wang Wenzhou said, "Just like in Liaodong, we will disperse 10 groups to carry out indiscriminate attacks."
"Yes!" Wei Yongfu nodded in agreement.
Wang Wenzhou continued, "Once explosions break out throughout Seoul, government troops will be deployed to seal off the entire city. The Joseon royal palace will also be heavily guarded. Jian Fengyu, we only have 200 sedan chair carriers and special forces soldiers. With them, can you control everyone at the birthday banquet by launching a hot air balloon attack?"
Jian Fengyu thought for a moment and replied, "My lord, it would be difficult to take over the palace with only two hundred men. But capturing some hostages is not difficult at all."
"Haha!" Wang Wenzhou laughed loudly, "Little Jian, I like you more and more. That's right, I want to capture Li Zong."
Wang Wenzhou didn't want to kill Li Zong, but capturing him and making things difficult for him was still an option.
Wang Wenzhou's plan was simple: parachute in and raid the Joseon royal palace, using the pretext of protecting himself and King Injo, to capture King Injo and his entourage as hostages. Then, he would return to the Ming Dynasty, torturing King Injo along the way. Once on board the ship, he would release King Injo and his men.
Once Wang Wenzhou boards the ship, his fleet, with its current strength, is practically invincible in this era. Even if Li Zong wanted revenge, he could only watch helplessly. At that point, Li Zong, unable to contain his anger, would betray the Ming Dynasty. Wang Wenzhou would then have killed two birds with one stone: venting Li Mei's anger and fulfilling Zhu Youjian's instructions.
